The first official practice reports of Week 10 came out late on Wednesday, and the Giants’ was almost empty. Linebacker Malik Harrison is the only Giant with a game status for Thursday night against the Commanders. Patrick Mahomes and Xavier Worthy were full participants for the Chiefs. In Seattle, Sam Darnold missed practice again and Drew Lock was limited, but Lock is still lined up to start in Las Vegas. Mike Evans did not practice for the 49ers, while Deebo Samuel came back on a limited basis. And the Ravens found their new kicker.
- Giants: only Malik Harrison (groin) is questionable for Thursday; J.J. McCarthy and Cam Skattebo have no designation
- Commanders: Lucas Patrick and Colson Yankoff are out; Treylon Burks has no designation and is set to play
- Chiefs: Mahomes (elbow) and Worthy (hamstring) were full participants
- Seahawks: Darnold (quad, ribs) did not practice and will miss another game; Lock (elbow, oblique) was limited and is expected to start
- 49ers: Evans (Achilles) did not practice; Samuel (hamstring) was limited after missing three games
- Rams: Matthew Stafford (elbow) was a full participant; Myles Garrett (knee) was limited
- Ravens: signing kicker Riley Patterson, who will kick against the Chargers on Monday night
Giants and Commanders set for Thursday night
The Giants host the Commanders at MetLife Stadium on Thursday at 8:15 p.m. ET, which is 3:15 a.m. Friday in Cairo. New York’s final report lists just one player with a game status: Harrison, a linebacker who plays mostly on special teams, is questionable with a groin injury. Quarterback J.J. McCarthy (hip) and running back Cam Skattebo (hamstring), both of whom practiced fully earlier in the week, have no designation and will play.
Washington had already ruled out center Lucas Patrick (concussion) and tight end Colson Yankoff (knee), as covered in Wednesday’s injury updates. Receiver Treylon Burks did not practice again on Wednesday, but that was by design, and he carries no game status.
Chiefs: Mahomes and Worthy full
The Chiefs’ report matched what Andy Reid said before practice. Mahomes was listed as a full participant, which puts him on track to play Sunday in Atlanta. Worthy was also a full participant with his hamstring injury. Right tackle Jaylon Moore (ankle) and defensive tackle Peter Woods (neck) did not practice, and defensive tackle Omarr Norman-Lott (knee) was limited.
Seahawks: Darnold out again, Lock on the same plan
Seattle will play the Raiders without Darnold for a second straight week. He has quad and rib injuries and did not practice. Lock, who started Sunday’s 17-3 win over Arizona, is dealing with two problems of his own: the elbow that has limited him for weeks and an oblique injury from Sunday’s game. Mike Macdonald said Lock will follow the same plan as last week. “Drew’s making good progress, so we have a plan, similar to last week and we’ll go from there,” Macdonald said. “He’s not going to take every rep, he’s not going to make every throw again, but that’s just trying to be as prudent as possible through the process to make sure he’s feeling his best on Sunday.”
Jalen Milroe took the first-team reps on Wednesday so that Lock could rest his arm. Lock was listed as limited. The Raiders start No. 1 pick Fernando Mendoza at quarterback for the first time on Sunday.
The report was still long. Guard Quenton Nelson (knee), tackle Charles Cross (ankle), defensive tackles Leonard Williams (stinger) and Brandon Pili (back) and Jarran Reed (personal) did not practice. Receiver Rashid Shaheed and tight end AJ Barner (finger) were full participants, and guard Anthony Bradford (knee), edge rushers Derick Hall (back) and Uchenna Nwosu were limited.
49ers: Evans out of practice, Samuel back
San Francisco plays in Dallas on Sunday, and it may have to do so without Evans. The receiver did not practice with an Achilles injury, and Kyle Shanahan called him week to week. Cornerbacks Renardo Green (back) and Deommodore Lenoir (foot) also sat out. The good news was Samuel, who returned to practice on a limited basis after missing three games with a hamstring injury. Defensive tackle C.J. West (knee) had his practice window opened from injured reserve and was limited, along with Upton Stout (shoulder) and Siran Neal. The 49ers also traded for Keenan Allen before the deadline.
On the other side of that game, Cowboys cornerback Joey Porter Jr. (ankle) did not practice, while receiver George Pickens (hamstring) and linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (hamstring, back) were limited. Pickens was limited all of last week and then did not play.
Rams: Stafford full, Garrett limited
Stafford was a full participant with his right elbow injury before Sunday’s game in Arizona. Garrett, who had three sacks against Washington in his first game since Week 1, was limited with a knee injury. Puka Nacua, cornerback Trent McDuffie, safety Kam Curl, tight end Terrance Ferguson and guard Steve Avila did not practice. Sean McVay said Nacua will not go on injured reserve because of roster mechanics, but he will be out for a “significant period of time.”
Ravens sign Riley Patterson
Baltimore needed a kicker after Jake Moody left for Atlanta, and it worked out several on Wednesday. Mike Garafolo reported that the Ravens are signing Riley Patterson, a former Dolphins kicker, and that he will kick against the Chargers on Monday night.
Around the league
In Green Bay, the Packers held only a jog-through. They opened receiver Skyy Moore’s window to return from injured reserve, and kicker Trey Smack was limited with a right calf injury. Linebacker Zaire Franklin, guard Sean Rhyan and safety Javon Bullard did not practice. Josh Jacobs is out after finger surgery.
The Vikings did not practice, but Kevin O’Connell said Kyler Murray (hamstring) would be listed as a non-participant. Murray just started his running progression. Carson Wentz, who hurt his ankle on Monday night, was listed as limited. In Houston, running back David Montgomery (groin) still did not practice. Jacksonville held out receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle), running back Bhayshul Tuten (ankle, foot) and edge rusher Travon Walker (rib). Miami center Aaron Brewer missed practice with a concussion. The Falcons held out receiver Zachariah Branch, linebacker Josh Woods and edge rusher James Pearce Jr. In Pittsburgh, defensive tackle Derrick Harmon returned from injured reserve as a limited participant, and T.J. Watt and Cam Heyward got rest days.
The Patriots and Lions reports, including A.J. Brown, Rhamondre Stevenson and Jared Goff’s chest injury, are in Munich game week, day two.
